A Busy Start to 2026
It has been a flying start to 2026 for the team who have hit the ground running across a diverse range of challenging projects. Our team has been traversing the country ensuring we offer your projects premium services, keeping them on track as they head into the new year. We’ve been on the road, working hard in the office and on the phone, to make sure you have the reports and service you need to get the year off to a flying start.
As always you, our clients, and your projects have been our sole focus, providing complete building compliance solutions tailored to your project and your needs in the fashion that works best for you. From SAP Calculations from the office to Air Tightness and Sound Insulation Testing on site and in person, we have been delivering the tailored, thorough and high quality reports that you and your project need.
Our Technical Expertise in Action:
Our extensive services have been in high demand since the turn of the year, with our technical expertise and experience proving valuable to help your project regardless of the service it requires.
Amongst other services, here is what has been keeping our team busy to commence 2026:
- Whole Project Compliance: We’ve been working hard on multiple large-scale developments, including a housing site of 13 properties, a development of 15 flats, and several large individual detached homes. These projects required total compliance reporting, including SAP Calculations, Water Usage Calculations, and Part O Overheating Calculations, to provide our clients with total peace of mind. Throughout these projects, we maintain constant communication to ensure any issues are addressed and solved in our clients’ best interests, turning reports around quickly to prevent delays or extra costs.
- Domestic and Commercial EPCs: Our assessors have been nationwide, delivering Domestic and Non-Domestic EPCs required for sale or let. From detached houses to commercial gyms, our team has covered a vast range of property types. By combining meticulous site visits with expert office-based analysis, we ensure every EPC is accurate, detailed, and fully compliant.
- Sound Insulation Testing: As it was at the tail end of 2025, Sound Insulation Testing remains at the forefront of our start to the year. Our site visits produce thorough, accurate results, ensuring your project meets the requirements of Approved Document Part E. By providing reliable data quickly, we ensure that acoustic compliance never becomes a reason for project delays.
- Energy Statements: Alongside our testing and calculations, we have played a critical role at the very beginning of the development cycle. By producing detailed Energy Statements, we provide robust evidence to local authorities that proposals will meet, and exceed, local carbon reduction and renewable energy targets. For larger projects, these statements are vital for planning approval, and there is no one better to trust with this than the experts who understand the technical reality of the build.
